This happened yesterday, March 5, 2022, Berlin.

2x F-35s had to 'emergency' land at Schoenefeld airport. The airport was cordoned off and no planes could land.

Excitement at BER on Saturday morning. Two US Air Force F-35s landed there. According to BZ information, an emergency landing!

By Maximilian Kiewel and Axel Lier

According to BZ information, both US jets had started from the US Air Force base in Spangdahlem.

Their mission: to guard the airspace over Poland for NATO. On the way back one of the F-35s reported: air emergency. Exactly why is not clear at the moment.

The fighter jet initiated an emergency landing. The nearest airport: BER. The second F-35 followed shortly thereafter. A common practice since both jets were traveling together.

Regarding the above, from a connected ex-military planefag

The F35 that landed at BER are waiting for the ADAC 'towing service' ...... system failure in the fly by wire ..... German Bundeswehr wanted to help were sent away immediately and the Federal Border Police called the US Military Police for help. The complete runway is closed ???????????? our very own Federal Border Police had to call for the US Military Police wonderful they got the message

This illustrates wonderfully that the German army, the German Federal Border Force (which is not a small agency) have zero jurisdiction on their very own 'German' soil. The Germans weren't even allowed to tow the planes off the runway. Literally hands-off 'Shut down the airport then'.

Think about it.
